3D Laser Mapping and Neptec Technologies Sign OEM Agreement

3D Laser Mapping, a global developer of laser scanning solutions for the infrastructure and mining sectors, has announced it has signed a global OEM agreement with Neptec Technologies, an innovative provider of real-time intelligent 3D robot vision products. The agreement will lay the foundations for the creation of mobile mapping systems specifically for the mining industry.

Neptec的蛋白石扫描仪技术将补3D Laser Mapping’s existing portfolio to create solutions, which automatically measure open pit high walls and stockpiles from static locations. The agreement allows 3D Laser Mapping to add automated measurements to mobile mining equipment such as excavators. OPAL technology paired with 3D Laser Mapping’s mining solutions will improve data capture and penetration through the dusty and particle-ridden conditions seen in mines.

“Rapidly updated terrain models are a key requirement in the modern mining industry, in both allowing rapid and accurate reporting and as an essential component of automation strategies” said Dr Graham Hunter, Executive Chairman of 3D Laser Mapping. “The agreement will enable 3D Laser Mapping to add new, exciting solutions to our rapidly growing portfolio.”

Mike Sekerka, CEO of Neptec Technologies, said “We are thrilled that 3D Laser Mapping has chosen our OPAL 3D laser scanners for its next-generation product solutions. Dr Hunter has an enviable track record in bringing cutting edge technology to new and practical product solutions for his global mining companies.”
